Access Point 44 / Denver, Colorado
Human in
the loop.
Lived experience meets accessibility, culture, and AI. The point is to solve real problems with the people who actually live them.

Start a conversationField Note 01 / Access in practice
When the door doesn't open.
An automatic door marked out of order can turn an ordinary visit into a negotiation. I use scenes like this to bring the lived consequence into decisions about places and services.
Access delayed is dignity denied.
Bring me an access challengeA short AP44 concept film
Visual description of the film
An automatic-door button is marked out of order. A wheelchair user waits outside while other people pass through the entrance. The film closes with the words, “Access delayed is dignity denied.”
A different starting point
Start with the person.
I know what it means when a system looks fine on paper and fails in the hands of the person using it. That gap is where AP44 works. I bring lived expertise into decisions about spaces, tools, services, and stories, then help turn insight into something people can use.
The work
01 / DESIGN FOR ACCESS
Build the door wider.
Accessibility consulting for public art, civic spaces, services, and experiences. That means looking beyond a checklist to ask how someone actually arrives, participates, understands, and belongs.
Bring me a site, plan, exhibit, or service before the next decision is locked in.
Discuss an access project
02 / HUMAN + AI
Make the tools answer to people.
AI prompt strategy, agent workflows, and hands-free technology ideas shaped by daily life. I’m interested in useful intelligence, clear human judgment, and interfaces that adapt to the person.
I use films like this to explore the relationship between people, technology, and the world built around them. The human stays at the center.
Bring me a tool or workflow that needs to work better for the person using it.

Visual description of the film
A wheelchair user moves through a city. A woman appears in close-up. AP44 title cards read “Access Point 44” and “Designing the line others miss.” The film includes a skyline at sunset and a wheelchair user silhouetted against the sky.
03 / STORY + CULTURE
Give the full story room.
Speaking, writing, and creative work connect disability with humor, history, culture, and possibility. The goal is a more honest conversation, one with people in it rather than labels standing in for them.

Behind AP44
Stewart Tucker Lundy.
I work where accessibility, civic life, and emerging technology meet.
My perspective comes from more than four decades of living with a spinal cord injury, as well as work in city planning, public art, community leadership, and media. I bring all of that into the room. The point is to find what others miss and make the next decision better.
Ideas in development
WoundFlow, ForensicBot, MMX, and the STL Machine are part of AP44’s evolving exploration of care, analysis, communication, and AI embodiment.

The person behind the work
Out in the world.
This short concept film puts a stylized version of me in the city. AP44 is meant to move through public life, meet people where they are, and keep asking who gets access.
